A bit of a screed, but I wanted to put my views on the goals of the GOP in one place. I’ve concluded that the GOP is anti-democratic and concerned only with creating a single-party, pseudo-democratic authoritarian regime to transfer all of the country’s wealth to the 1% as quickly as possible… like they do in Russia.
Let me explain to you how the second Democratic presidential primary debate, day 2 is a microcosm for all that is wrong in America today. No really. You’ll want to read this one. It’s good. I make predictions and everything.
Your weekly MoC call list is a doozy! It is chock-a-block full of follow-up to the Mueller Congressional testimony, impeachment inquiry demands, and protecting our elections. There are also updates on past issues, a bonus issue that you won’t believe, and contacts for Indivisible.
Why is the press such a useful idiot when it comes to conservative lies, diversions, conspiracy theories, and other transparent manipulations? Prospect theory and loss aversion hold the answers, but it don’t make it no better. Can one of our pillars of democracy stand up and save our democracy? Please? Does it have to be We The People? I guess so.
What to make of Mueller’s testimony? Will it help? Will it hurt? Will it not matter? How will people react? Well, psychology has something to say about it all… and it’s better news than you think!
Now that the end of the first Democratic presidential debate has finally ended after two days and 20 candidates and five moderators, how can we possibly know who won? We can’t say who won, but we can predict who benefited.
